2nd in the club. Thommo bench pressed Sando bench pressing his maximum weight.
After that he never tried telling Thommo anything

Tex, Talia & Knight are three guys who would have done everything asked of them in the offseason and more, they are probably the 3 hardest workers at the club next to Sloane. Tex and Talia were back training with the 1-4 year players as was Brouch. It wouldn't surprise me that Brouch and Lever were trying to do extra work to give this season a red-hot crack. So it's probably not a coincidence that these are the guys who have had the Hammys. I thought the McGovern brothers were notorious for not liking training so I have no idea if Mitch also would have tried to have an extra big preseason but with his contract up and him at the perfect age to have a breakout season it wouldn't surprise me.
If you plan on pushing the whole group to the edge, it's going to be the guys who want to do more work than everyone else who have the issues and I think that's what we are seeing.

Reckon he will re-sign with the Crowies?
No doubt, especially after such a key player as DT going down, someone at the club has pulled on the reigns. Muscles take a month or two to adapt to change though. We'll probably have a couple more but hopefully the change has been timely and will take effect before finals.
In the meantime we get a look at some talent lying beneath the surface. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Good sides can cope with challenges to their depth. I feel like we are finally a side like that. Did I mention my love for Pyke?

Initially I thought the injuries were just bad luck, but the fact it's a regular occurrence it needs to be investigated
It could be over training the type of training or maybe the warm up routine the players are doing, it will be tough to pin point where they are going wrong but it needs to be sorted
Nice theory, a bizarre one but a nice one.
You have no idea internally who works harder.
What about Keath, Cheney? They worked harder too?
Fair dinkum you come up with some bizarre s**t.
Just putting it out there - is it a trend if they are different?
Talia 1 minute in is quite distinct to Gov and Knight going down with a few minutes to go where fatigue is a major factor.
We don't know the scenarios for the boys who went down at training.

Sloaneys pre season injury may be a blessing in disguise. Missed a chunk of training.

God if Sloane did his Hammy Id' flip my s**t.
But was also able to do some running at a lower intensity which is a good thing
Had it been a leg injury, he may have lost more conditioning
We don't win without him.
What were his qualifications?
Lifted some weights in his bedroom in his teens.
I have read so many opinions and thoughts around this....some quite bizarre. I have no opinions on why it is occurring although it definitely looks training specific at this point in time, I just expect the club not to put its head in the sand on this one. I am confident they won't.
I have never heard it called a "weight" before.
It's a bit like the VB and Mackay excuses of the past. Poulos was magnificent, it was Sando's fault. Walsh turns up and Poulos gets the praise for improvement. He was never all that good and I'd suggest that Walsh identified this and his card was marked. Walsh was reported to be hands on in the fitness dept.

From memory it was only Rutten who outbenched Sando.
2 degrees, a masters and currently doing PHD. 20 odd years of experience
Not saying he was perfect but look what we have now in a General Manager role.Haas was a fitness assistant.
Depends how you're built.
Well at least that's good news
